[Removed: Rule 2J]
An illegally imported weapon will still not be registered.
Like the buyback registering legal arms still won't solve the issue of illegal weapons in the hands of criminals.

If firearms were actually registered, as they will be as the present legislation is implemented, then provenance of ownership of that weapon would become a simple exercise but for now gaining that proof is near impossible.
